A class of cyclic codes constructed via semiprimitive two-weight irreducible cyclic codes∗

چکیده
We present a family of reducible cyclic codes constructed as a direct sum (as vector spaces) of two different semiprimitive two-weight irreducible cyclic codes. This family generalizes the class of reducible cyclic codes that was reported in the main result of [10]. Moreover, despite of what was stated therein, we show that, at least for the codes studied here, it is still possible to compute the frequencies of their weight distributions through the cyclotomic numbers in an easy way. 2010 MSC: 94B15, 11T71

Reducible Cyclic Codes Constructed as the Direct Sum of Two Semiprimitive Cyclic Codes
We present a family of reducible cyclic codes constructed as the direct sum of two different semiprimitive two-weight irreducible cyclic codes. This family generalizes the class of reducible cyclic codes that was reported in the main result of B. Wang, et al. [11]. Moreover, despite of what was stated therein, we show that, at least for the codes studied here, it is still possible to compute th...
متن کاملOn the Weights of Binary Irreducible Cyclic Codes
This paper is devoted to the study of the weights of binary irreducible cyclic codes. We start from McEliece’s interpretation of these weights by means of Gauss sums. Firstly, a dyadic analysis, using the Stickelberger congruences and the Gross-Koblitz formula, enables us to improve McEliece’s divisibility theorem by giving results on the multiplicity of the weights. Secondly, in connection wit...
متن کاملOn the semiprimitivity of cyclic codes
We prove, without assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, but with at most one exception, that an irreducible cyclic code c(p, m, v) with v prime and p of index 2 modulo v is a two-weight code if and only if it is a semiprimitive code or it is one of the six sporadic known codes. The result is proved without any exception for index-two irreducible cyclic c(p, m, v) codes with v prime not c...
متن کاملDetermining the full weight distribution of any irreducible cyclic code over any finite field of dimension two
In coding theory, a very interesting problem (but at the same time, a very difficult one) is to determine the weight distribution of a given code. This problem is even more interesting for cyclic codes, and this is so, mainly because they possess a rich algebraic structure, which can be utilized in a variety of ways. For example, in Engineering Telecommunications, this structure is commonly emp...
متن کاملGood Quasi-Cyclic Codes Derived From Irreducible Cyclic Codes
As a generalization of cyclic codes, quasi-cyclic codes contain many good linear codes. Extensive search is made and lots of good quasi-cyclic codes are obtained from irreducible cyclic codes. A new binary [95, 13, 40] code which improves the lower bound on the minimum distance, is also constructed. Index Term — Codes and coding, linear codes, cyclic codes, idempotent, irreducible codes, quasi-...
